At Sitnasuak our business philosophy guides and measures our success according to a triple bottom line:
We constantly pursue excellence in these three areas which incorporates sustainability directly into our business decisions. Our business conscience and philosophy flow directly from our Iñupiaq cultural values.

Sitnasuak was created as a result of the Alaska Native Claim Settlement Act of 1971 (ANCSA). This federal Act is based on the premise that for-profit corporations provide the best vehicle for serving our Inupiaq and Alaska Native community, who are the proud Shareholders of our village corporation. Since our formation in 1973, we have sought to adopt best practices from our indigenous culture blended with the global business community.
Key values that define our business culture are:
These key corporate values encompass respect, integrity, transparency, hard work, a powerful commitment to attract and develop the best people, and Iñupiaq traditional values.
